Les Femmes Noires Contest

A Competiton for one Shot Stories exploring the Darkside of the female characters of Twilight.

We all love a ‘good’ Darkward or Darksper but if you really want to see Dark, leave it to a woman.

Deadlier than the Male?

Dominant, obsessive, manipulative, cruel, cold, jealous, angry, neurotic, passionate, predatory? Whatever, a woman will always go that extra mile. There are very few dark female characters in Twific so let your imagination run wild and let’s balance things up. We would really like to see some fresh, original ideas.

All submissions will be screened to ascertain that the following requirements have been met before being added to the Community page. Moderators reserve the right to reject, or return for further editing, any stories which they feel are not respectful of the seriousness and gravity of any questionable topics.
